TY - JOUR T1 - Optic nerve hypoplasia with good visual acuity and visual field defects: A study of children of diabetic mothers AU - Petersen RA, Walton DS Y1 - 1977/02/01 N1 - 10.1001/archopht.1977.04450020055011 JO - Archives of Ophthalmology SP - 254 EP - 258 VL - 95 IS - 2 N2 - • Seventeen children, born of severely diabetic mothers, exhibited segmental optic nerve hypoplasia with normal visual acuity and altitudinal or sector field defects corresponding to the hypoplastic areas of the disc. This is the first group of patients with optic nerve hypoplasia in which a possible cause has been identified. Optic nerve hypoplasia is neither a rare abnormality usually associated with serious central nervous system defects, nor is it always accompanied by decreased visual acuity.(Arch Ophthalmol 95:254-258, 1977) SN - 0003-9950 M3 - doi: 10.1001/archopht.1977.04450020055011 UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/archopht.1977.04450020055011 ER -
